Re: Ospreys

Osprey on the nest at Poole Harbour. Half eaten fish in its talons. This nest is way down on the south coast so it may not be too early for the birds to return. Only started watching this nest midway through last season so the arrival may be normal for this nest. Nothing yet at the other two nests.

Re: WOOD PIGEONS

The record for the number of Wood Pigeons in my garden stood at 10. Last Thursday the record went up to 11. When I did the RSPB bird count on Sunday the count was 0.

Re: WHAT I SAW TODAY.....

There are Little Egrets on my local river about half a mile from where I stay. Usually see them perching on trees on the river bank.

Re: GOLDFINCHES

Have plenty Goldfinches and as much as seven young one at a time. Not sure if they are from one brood or several.

Re: Ospreys

Looks like all Ospreys (adults and chick) are gone on their migration. Nothing to be seen. Roll on March 2024.

Re: Ospreys

All nests empty at the moment. One on the chicks had been feeding at Poole Harbour.
